ELEVEN VERDICTS A DAY.
Mow an English Jury Dispatches Its
Business.
The working o( tiro HrltLsh Jury
ti.vsiuin exhibits a marked contrast
wilb that of our own. It Is possible
that my experience In British courts
was exceptional, but In not a single
liisiauro did 1 see a juror challenged
or rejected. In all of the courts re
quiring juries the necessary number
of men were present and they were
sworn In without question. In in
sheriff's deputy court In Sett land the
presiding judge guvo notice to the
Jury that ho expected to adjourn the
court at 2 o'clock, and slated that tt
they could all remain until that hour
he would at once dismiss the men
who hud been called for a second
panel. The jurors conferred together
to remain till 1 o clock, where upon
the judge notified the other men to
appear at 12:3d. The oue jury Im
paneled for the morning session ren
dered six verdicts In cases involving
prosecutions for thefts, fraud and bur
glary.
In the court of quarter sessions at
Taunton, Eugland, I saw a single jury
In one day render eleven verdicts. 1
found that It was customary in the
several sorts of ccntt that 1 attended
for the same jury to act in successive
cases. In no Instance did 1 see a
jury leave their seats to make up
their verdict. Usually the issue be
fore them was made so plain that all
who gave attention knew in advance
whai the decision would oe. 1 made
note of an exceptional Instance of de
lay ( when the court was forced to
wait nine minutes for the report of
the jury. In this case the Judge who
gave the Instructions was hitnself in
doubt as to what the verdict ought to
be.
"A Scottish Jury consists of fifteen ;
persons, hik! a majority may render a
verdict. In England the number is
twelve, and unanimity ts nsjuired.
Hut 1 noted no difference as to prac-1
ticai results in the two countries. The
twelve men in the English Jury were
as prompt and certain in their action
as were the eight out of fifteen in the
Scottish Jury.—McClure's.

ALL HOUSES SHOULD
HAVE MAIL BOXES'
Mail Carriers Greatly De
layed in Delivery Wien
Boxes are Absent.
Augusta is one of the few large
cities in the United States where each
household is not provided with a box
for the receptacle of the mall delivei
ed by carriers, and as a conseuenc*.
much delay is caused in the delivery
service from the post office. Re
peated efforts have been made to ge.
citizens to install receptacles of
some kind, but not much success has
been had. In order for the carrier
to deliver mail at a house where there
is no receptacle provided, he is obliged
to wait some time, three minutes or
more, for the servant or some one
else to come to the door. By law he
is not required to wait more than five
minutes. The delay in the carrier
service will be appreciated by the fol
lowing figures. A delay of three
minutes at each house would mean
the loss of five hours should the car
rier be delayed at one hundred houses
on. the route The authorities are de
sirous that citizens see the delay they
are giving the service, and place re
ceptacles for their mail. The loss
of mail from these boxes is with gov
ernment prosecution in which sent
ences are very heavy. At the next con
gress a law will he probably passed
which will force citizens on a carrier
route to provide receptacles for the
mail.

one shot. Can ye beat that?”
“Ya-as,” drawled Uncle Si Peavey*. “Ye
know Bill Wiggins’ frog pond?”
“Yes,” said old man Braggard “What
of It?”
“Wall, I went down there the other
night after sundown to shoot a couple
of bullfrogs with my old shotgun,” said
Uncle SI. “There was 6,000 of ’em set
tin’ on there Illy pads, and I just lift
ed that there gun to my shoulder ana
let her go.”
“S'pose ye did,” said old man Brag
gard.
“How does that effect my bird story?”
“Beats it all holler,” retorted Uncle Si.
